9.47 pm
Mr. Andrew Lansley (South Cambridgeshire)

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker. You will be aware that the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport yesterday afternoon replied to a question about the involvement of the right hon. Member for Hartlepool (Mr. Mandelson) in the passport application by Mr. Hinduja. He said that the right hon. Gentleman's sole involvement in the case was to ask his then Parliamentary Private Secretary to speak to the Home Office. It is perfectly clear that that answer was not correct.

The Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport yesterday may have answered that question incorrectly in an inadvertent manner because of the advice that he had received. Have you, Mr. Speaker, received any request from the right hon. Gentleman for a parliamentary opportunity to set the record straight? [Interruption.]

Mr. Speaker

Order. I have received no such request, but I am sure that the Secretary of State will have noted what the hon. Gentleman had to say.
